It's good to hear you had a pleasant experience with BMT. I ordered Batch #1 on September 3, 2015 and received it on October 16, 2015. It was 4 days past the deadline. You just happen to order at a good time.
As for my order; yes, it was late. Do I feel it was a scam? HELL NO!!! Do I feel like I was treated fairly? Yes! Do I feel like the compensation to come is fair? Yes! Others with less power cost or no power cost may not agree. So, BMT did an "average" for compensation. Was it a scam? HELL NO!!!
Have some received equipment with heatsinks out of position and actually causing some rigs to burn up? Yes. Did they get satisfactory response to resolve the issue? I would say more than likely, YES!!! Is this a perfect world with perfect people and perfect government with perfect corporations? No! Do some governments and corporations take advantage of people? Yes. Do I think BMT took advantage of those it sold S7's to? HELL NO!!!
Do I think BMT learned from the issues that developed during this episode with the S7's? Yes. Will they learn from this episode? Yes. Will something like this happen again? Probably not. Will something else come up in the future with other models yet to come on the market? Possibly... It's not a perfect world. Will they offer a means of correcting a potential issue in the future? I would say, YES!!!
BMT has been a good company and just as loyal to the home/small farm/large farm miner than any other manufacturer out there. I believe you were in good hands when you placed your order with them. I'm happy this forum has been informative to you and I want to welcome you to the fold.
Happy mining, reinaldo, and may the blocks be with you!

Do you review BMT products or have any association with BMT? I have lurked here for a long time and have noticed a shill like stance you take with regards to BMT in general on any response regarding BMT "the company". I know that BMT is the only real game in town at this point, but some of your perspectives and comments almost have a "customer service" feel to them.
There are examples of s7's catching on fire, late shipping, poor communication and generally a really bad experience for a HUGE!!! (see what I did there) portion of the community with BMT, but you always seem to find a positive spin.
I have nine s7's online and have been involved in bitcoin since 2010, granted I am a lurker. So I apologize if my query comes across as jaded, but no one I know IRL would defend BMT in this manner that wasn't being paid by them.
